GrowCNanswered grow question 3 years ago I soak my seeds in water 24-36 hours then they go into their forever pots inside the tent. I run one light at it's lowest setting just so I can keep an eye on it. Once it sprouts I turn up the light to about 200 PPFD until the plant has at least 2 or 3 nodes. Then I sometimes turn up the power to increase the growth rate but I also vary the light power to make the plant stretch or keep it compact as needed.
